01 Reaction conditions for reactions (5), (7) and (8) are similar to those of reactions (3), (2~ and (4), respectively. Reac~ion (6~ may be performed under conven-tional hydrogenation conditions with platinum catalyst.
05 The compounds of the presen~ inven~ion are, in general, herbicidal and plant-growth regulating in both pre- and post~emergent applications, bu~ are particularly effective in pre-emergent applications. For pre emergent ~ control of undesirable vegetation, the herbicidal com-- 1~ pounds will be applied in herbicidally e~fective amounts to the locus or growth medium of the vegetation/ e.g., soil infested with seeds and/or seedlings of such vegeta-tion. Such application will inhibit the growth of or kill the seedsr germinating seeds and seedlings. For post-emergent applications) the herbicidal compounds will be applied directly ~o the foliage and other plant parts.
Generally, the herbicidal compounds of the invention are effective against weed grasses as well as broad-leaved weeds. Some may be selective with respect to the type of application and/or type of weedO The compounds of the invention are particularly effective as pre-emergent herbicides against weed grassesO
The compounds, when applied to growing plants above the ground in such an amount that the compounds will not kill beneficial plan~s, also show efficient plan~
growth regulating or retarding efects and may be advan-tageously employed, for example, to prevent or retard the growth of turf grassO
The compounds can be applied in any of a variety of compositions. In general, the compounds can be extended with a carrier material o the kind used and commonly referred to in the art such as inert solids, water and organic liquids.
The compounds will be included in such composi-tions in sufficient amount so that they can exert an 01 herbicidal or growth regulating effectO Usually romabout 0O5 to 95~ by weight of the compounds are included ; in such formulations.
Solid compositions can be made with inert 05 powders. The composi~ions thus can be homogeneous powders that can be used as such~ diluted with inert solids to form dusts, or suspended in a suitable liquid medium or spray application. The powders usually comprise the active ingredient admixed with minor amounts of condition-ing agent. Natural clays, either absorptive, such asattapulgite, or relatively non~absorptive, such as china clays, diatomaceous earth, synthetic fine silica, calcium silicate and other iner~ solid carriers of the kind con~
ventionally employed in powdered herbicidal compositions can be used. The active ingredient usually makes up from 0.5 to 90% of these powder compositions. The solids ordi-r narily should be very finely divided. For conversion o the powders to dusts~ talc, pyrophyllite, and the like, are customarily used.
Liquid compositions including the active compounds described ~bove can be prepared by admixing the compound with a suitable liquid diluent medium. Typical of the liquid media commonly employed are methanolr benzene, toluene, and the like. The active ingredient usually makes up from about 0.5 to 50% of these liquid compositions. Some of these compositions are designated to be used as such, and others to be extended with large quantities of water.
Compositions in the form of wettable powders or liquids can also include one or more surface-active agents, such as wetting, dispersing or emulsifying agents.
The surface~active agents cause the compositions of ~et-table powders or liquids to disperse or emulsify easily in water to give aqueous sprays.

01The surface active agents employed can be of the anionic~ cationic or nonionic type. They include, for example, sodium long-chain carboxylates, alkyl aryl sulfo~ates, sodium lauryl sulfate, polyethylene oxides, lignin sulfonates and other surface-active agents.
When used as a pre-emergent treatment, it is desirable to include a fertilizer, an insecticide, a fungicide or another herbicide.
The amount of compound or composition administered will vary with the particular plant part or plant growth medium which is to be contacted, the general location of application~ e., sheltered areas such as greenhouses, as compared to exposed areas such as fields -as well as the desired type of control. Generally~ for bo~h pre- and post~emergent herbicidal control, the com-pounds of the invention are applied at rates of 0.2 to 60 kg/ha, and the preferred rate is in the range 0.5 to 40 kg~ha. For plant growth regulating or retarding activity, it is essential to apply the oxime compounds at a concen-tration not so high as to kill the plants~ Therefore9 theapplication rates for plant growth regulating or retarding activity will generally be lower than the rates used for killing the plants. Generally, such rates vary from 0~1 to 5 kg/ha, and preferably from 0.1 to 3 kg/ha.
25Herbicidal tests on representative compounds of the invention were made using the following methods.
Pre-Emergent Herbicidal Test An acetone solution of the -test compound was prepared by mixing 375 mg of the compcund~ 118 mg of a nonionic surfactant and 18 ml of acetone. Ten ml of this solution was added to 40 ml of water to give the test solutionO
Seeds of the test vegetation were planted in a pot of soil and the test solution was sprayed uniformly onto the soil surface at a dose of 27.5 micrograms/cm2O

~8--01 The pot was watered and placed in a greenhouse. The pot was watered intermiktently and observed for seedling emergence, health of emerging seedlings, e~c., for a 3-week period. A~ the end of this period, the herbicidal 05 effectiveness of the compound was rated based on the physiological observations. A 0-to-100 scale was used, 0 representing no phytotoxicity, 100 representing complete kill. The results of these ~ests appear in Table I. The compounds were also tested at lower dosages on weeds and 0 crops. The results of these tests appear in Table II.
Post-Emergent ~erbicidal Test The tes~ compound was formulated in the same manner as described above for-the pre-emergent test. This formulation was uniformly sprayed on 2 similar pots of lS 24-day-old plants (approximately 15 to 25 plants per pot) at a dose of 27.5 micrograms/cm2. After the plants had dried, they were placed in a greenhouse and then watered intermittently at their bases J as needed. The plants were observed periodically or phytotoxic effects and physio-logical and morphological responses to the treatment.
After 3 weeks, the herbicidal effectiveness of the com-pound was rated based on these observations. A 0-to-100 scale was used, 0 representing no phytotoxicity and 100 representing complete ~ The results of these tests appear in Table I.
Plant-Growth Re~ulation ~est Four turf grass species shown in Table III were grown in rows in 6~5 x 9.5" pots to a height of 4 to 6", then were trimmed to a height of one inch. Each test com-pound was uniformly sprayed on the turf grass species at the test cncentrations. After 20 days in the greenhouse under normal watering and fertilization, each species was cut one inch above soil level and weiyhed. Weights are expressed as % grow~h inhibition compared to untreated check species. Four replicates were used per treatment.
